00:01 The church service today was done completely by the inmates.
00:04 Pope Benedict XVI is calling for a New World Financial Order. 00:10 One, the boat will carry everything that we order. 00:18 Literally this need is gathered in the season. 00:20 And release some radioactive-- 00:23 God wants to signal us, 00:25 send the signal to us if we're watching. 00:29 Welcome to Laymen Ministry News, I'm Jeff Reich. 00:32 This is the first of a series of new news programs. 00:35 The name Laymen Ministry News is significant. 00:37 As Laymen Ministry started back in the mid '1980s 00:40 as a lay organization that was created as a ministry 00:44 to help motivate and educate lay people 00:46 to be involved with ministry. 00:48 Our first publication was a newsletter, 00:50 so you can guess what the title of the newsletter was? 00:53 Yes, that's right, Laymen Ministry News. 00:56 Now nearly 30 years later, it seemed only appropriate 00:59 to name a TV news program Laymen Ministry News. 01:08 Right now Europe or what is now knows as the European Union. 01:11 There is a growing movement towards making 01:13 Sunday as the official day of rest. 01:16 This is being pushed by an organization called 01:18 the European Sunday Alliance which was formed June 2011. 01:23 It was made up of a network 01:24 consisting of various organizations 01:26 such as trade unions, 01:28 civil society organizations and religious communities. 01:33 These organizations are committed to make "Sunday" 01:36 the synchronized free time for European societies. 01:40 Their founding statement in European Sunday Alliance says, 01:43 "Only a well-protected common work-free day per week 01:48 enables citizens to enjoy full participation in cultural, 01:52 sports, social and religious life, 01:55 to seek cultural enrichment and spiritual well-being 01:58 and to engage in voluntary work and association of activities. 02:03 Without this day, all these forms of social interaction 02:06 and pastime would be endangered." 02:08 The alliance also states in its resolution that it urges 02:13 the European Institutions to safeguard Sunday, 02:16 in principle, as a common weekly rest day in the EU 02:21 and calls upon the Governments of the Member States 02:25 to take their responsibility for improving, 02:28 implementing and enforcing 02:30 existing legislation and practices. 02:33 On their official website they state, today, 02:36 legislation and practices now in place at EU 02:39 and Member States levels 02:41 need to be more protective of the health, 02:44 safety, and dignity of everyone 02:46 and should more assertively promote 02:48 the reconciliation of professional and family life. 02:52 We believe that social cohesion 02:54 in the European citizenship should be reinforced. 02:59 They are using the angle of the need of the family, 03:02 human rights and the economy as stratagem 03:04 to try to get this legislation passed. 03:07 Recently on a BBC program filmed in England 03:10 entitled "The Big Question." 03:11 I don't know if you have seen this on BBC or not 03:13 but this program deals-- 03:16 they had one particular program not too long ago 03:18 that dealt with the Sunday Law moment in Europe. 03:21 One question that was under debate on that program was 03:24 "Should the Sabbath be a day of rest?" 03:27 It's important to know that 03:28 when they referred to the Sabbath here, 03:30 they are talking about Sunday. 03:31 In fact I appreciated when one German participant 03:34 on the program said when he cleared up this point. 03:37 "Should the Sabbath be a day of rest?" 03:40 Well, actually the Sabbath is a Jewish festival, 03:43 not a religious festival and secondly if it was-- 03:46 Oh, oh, I'm sorry. I wish it were. 03:51 We had a cacophony of disagreement over here 03:53 from our friends in the dark color. 03:55 As a Christian, the Christian church has adopted 03:59 Sunday as their Sabbath, 04:01 but it's actually a Jewish festival. 04:03 I should be able to tell this program pull together 04:05 people of various faiths as well as secular voices 04:09 to discuss the concept of a Sunday rest day. 04:12 If we're going to, as a country and as individuals, 04:15 if we can say, actually it's our relationships 04:18 that are most important to us as a community 04:21 and not just economics, it's not just economics, 04:23 we can both end but we have to have some priorities, 04:26 then I suggest that we have to make one day 04:29 in the week give priority to relationships. 04:32 You got a bug there-- Otherwise-- 04:34 Otherwise what will happen is 04:35 that commercial pressures will run over us. 04:38 You can see how this idea of family and the economy 04:41 is being woven into this philosophy of a rest day idea. 04:45 It was interesting to hear the comments made by 04:47 Alex Goldberg of the London Jewish Forum. 04:50 It seems some Jews are kind of soft pedaling 04:52 their Seventh-day Sabbath idea 04:54 and leaning towards this idea that 04:56 "What day we keep is not that important 04:59 as it is spending time with the family 05:01 on any designated day." 05:02 Look, I'm a Sabbath observant Jew 05:04 which means I've got very huge stretches what I can't-- 05:07 I couldn't even get in a motor car on a Sunday. 05:09 And I've worked, also I'm now 05:11 Chief Executive of the London Jewish Forum, 05:12 I've worked in mainstream environments 05:15 where my colleagues were Muslim and Christian 05:17 and secularism or whatever. 05:19 And people respect to the fact that I had to honor time 05:22 from sunset on Friday to dusk down Saturday. 05:26 With Saturday, Sunday, 05:27 I'm not against the Jewish Christian debate on that. 05:29 And I know exactly where it comes, 05:30 but choose your day it could be a Friday 05:32 or Saturday or Sunday, whatever is-- 05:34 Everybody needs the same day off because otherwise-- 05:37 well, because, because, because-- 05:41 I will choose my own time. 05:43 Please allow me to finish my sentence. 05:44 He needs a day off. He does. 05:47 You're already telling me what to do. 05:48 No, because if I have Wednesday off 05:51 my children are not at home, my friends are at work, 05:55 I can't have community, I can't meet with my relatives, 05:58 I can't spend time with my kids or my spouse. 06:01 If we're all having different days of the week off. 06:03 This movement towards Sunday rest 06:05 is effecting the country of Israel as well, 06:08 with its longstanding history of keeping the Seventh-day Sabbath. 06:11 I've here a paper, a newsletter actually called 06:14 the Maoz Israel Report. 06:16 This is from August of 2011. 06:19 And it says, "Should Sunday become 06:21 a day of rest for Israelis?" 06:22 Now this is extremely interesting. 06:24 And this article goes on, "Israel looks for a solution." 06:28 All Israeli businesses with international dealings" 06:31 and this is what it goes on to say, 06:33 "have the exact same situation. 06:36 A dramatic example of the world's stock markets 06:39 and financial institutes which conduct businesses on Friday 06:42 while Israel's stock market is closed. 06:44 Then on Sunday, when Israel is in full swing, 06:46 most of the world is shut down. 06:49 The Israeli parliament is very aware of this problem 06:52 and a movement within the Knesset is growing 06:55 to legislate Sunday as a day of rest in Israel." 06:59 And then it goes on to say, 07:00 "Having Sundays off is inevitable for Israel. 07:04 Demographic and economic realities 07:06 make the change unavoidable." 07:09 This is a little bit reminiscent of what happened 07:12 during the third century under Constantine 07:15 because there was this separation has started happening 07:18 between the early Christians who came from Judaism 07:21 that accepted The Ten Commandments 07:23 as a moral Decalogue 07:25 and kept the Seventh-day Sabbath and there were Christians 07:28 and that was a longstanding tradition for hundreds of years, 07:31 but Gentiles who had converted to Christianity 07:35 started to slowly adopt the Pagan Sunday 07:38 as a day of rest, for two reasons. 07:41 They wanted to distance themselves from the Jews, 07:43 because the Jews had a bad reputation 07:45 about what happened to the Messiah 07:48 and secondly that the Sabbath was such a day of bondage, 07:53 a day of dos and don'ts 07:54 that Sunday became more appealing for a day to go out 07:58 and be involved with sporting events, 07:59 to feast or gather with your friends 08:01 and to do things together 08:03 that you couldn't do on the Sabbath. 08:05 And so there was this shift that was starting 08:07 to take place amongst early Christians towards Sunday 08:10 which came totally from tradition 08:12 and not from a Biblical point of view. 08:15 And now we see the exact same thing happening with Israel. 08:19 You might be thinking, well, Jeff, 08:21 you seemed to be opposed to this idea? 08:24 What's the problem? 08:25 Don't you think that everyone would benefit 08:26 from having a day of rest? 08:28 Well, first of all I liked to say 08:29 that I'm in favor of keeping a rest day. 08:31 I keep the Seventh-day Sabbath every week myself. 08:34 I'm just not in favor of having the government 08:36 telling us what day that we should rest. 08:38 You see there's some complications with this. 08:40 For instance, let's say that we have 08:42 a Monday through Saturday workweek 08:45 and Sunday is legislated by the government as our day off. 08:48 What happens to those people who want to keep a different day 08:51 because of their conscience, because of their convictions, 08:53 another day holy as a rest day. 08:57 Are they gonna be all of a sudden 08:58 under pressure of course 08:59 because there's this established workweek 09:01 from Monday to Saturday that in order to keep their jobs 09:05 they have to work on Saturday 09:06 and the employer is gonna say something like, 09:08 well, you know, you have Sunday 09:10 that's why the government has given us Sundays off. 09:12 You can take Sunday off like everybody else 09:14 and then they have to go against 09:16 their convictions and their conscience, 09:18 just because there's this established 09:20 work weakness made by the government. 09:22 Does the state have the right to dictate to us 09:25 what day we should rest? 09:27 Then they are gonna have to come up with an idea 09:29 of what constitutes work 09:31 and then they are gonna have to make laws as saying, 09:33 well, you can do this kind of work, 09:34 but you can't do that kind of work. 09:36 And what does it really mean to rest on Sunday? 09:38 You can go to sporting events, 09:40 but you can't fix the fence at your house 09:42 or paint your house on a Sunday. 09:44 And all of this starts to open up a whole bag of worms 09:47 as far as how to legislate and enforce a Sunday rest day. 09:52 And I ask myself 09:53 "could this really even happen in secular Europe?" 09:56 And if so is America next? 09:58 Well, America has a longstanding tradition 10:01 of Sunday Closing Laws. 10:02 And I have before me right here a book called 10:04 "Religious Liberty in America." 10:06 This book was published in 1914. 10:08 It's a gathering of essays dealing with the principles 10:11 of separation of church and state 10:13 and religious liberty issues that took place here 10:16 in the early centuries of the United States. 10:18 Now in the early days before America declared 10:23 its independence from British rule, 10:25 we were considered to be colonies 10:26 and one colony was referred to as the Colony of Virginia. 10:30 In chapter 6 of this book it says, 10:33 "Conscience Outlawed in Virginia." 10:35 Now I like to give you just kind of an example of what happens 10:38 when you start to try to legislate a day of rest. 10:41 If you did not, go to religious services 10:43 on the Sabbath which was Sunday. 10:45 The first offense was whipping, 10:47 the second offense was stoppage of allowance 10:49 which was financial support 10:51 and the third was the galleys for six months. 10:55 But I found this one particular law 10:56 interesting for Sabbath breaking. 10:58 You know, having a Sunday legislated law. 11:01 "For Sabbath-breaking the first offense 11:03 was the stoppage of allowance." 11:04 They hit you in the pocketbook. 11:06 The second was a whipping and the third was death. 11:09 Well, you might say, well, Jeff, that was back in the 1600s', 11:12 you know, we're way beyond that now. 11:15 People were too intelligent, that would never happen again. 11:18 Well, I would like to differ with you 11:20 because as soon as the church gets involved with helping 11:23 and having the government legislate her degrees or dogmas, 11:26 her interpretation of scripture and her traditions, 11:30 history has proven that the consequences 11:33 are some sort of persecution and punishment. 11:36 Evangelicals have this idea that the reason, 11:38 there's a separation of church and state 11:40 today in our government is to protect the church 11:43 from the evils of the government, 11:45 but that's not the case. 11:46 The founding fathers put together the Bill of Rights 11:49 and the Constitution to protect the government 11:52 from the evils of the church. 11:55 You know, in Romans 6:16 it says, 11:57 "Know ye not, to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, 12:01 his servants ye are to whom ye obey." 12:04 It's saying in another words, 12:05 whoever you give your allegiance too, 12:06 who you obey that is who you're servant to. 12:10 Where would such laws end up if they start legislating Sunday 12:13 saying that we have to rest upon that day. 12:16 Would I be forced to go against my conscience? 12:18 Would I yield myself to what the government says 12:22 and become a servant to the government? 12:23 Or would I yield my conscience 12:25 to that which is found in the scripture 12:27 upholding the Seventh-day Sabbath 12:29 and resting upon the day that God has decreed, 12:32 written in His own hand 12:33 in the Decalogue of the Ten Commandments, 12:35 part of that new covenant 12:36 that He is writing on our hearts and our minds. 12:39 And if this did come to this point, 12:42 if so, could it become a kind of like a sign of allegiance 12:46 to whom we honor the Bible or the tradition of men? 12:50 Could it establish an identifying mark of loyalty 12:54 to God versus loyalty to men? 12:59 Laymen Ministries bookstore carries hundreds of books, 13:02 Bibles, resource materials, 13:03 video taps and audio tapes, all at discounted prices. 13:08 To receive your free catalog, write or call Laymen Ministries, 13:12 414 Zapada Rd.

Well, look at verse 6. 15:12 "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge 15:14 because thou hast rejected knowledge, 15:17 I will also reject thee, 15:19 that thou shalt be no priest to me 15:21 seeing that thou hast forgotten the law of God." 15:24 So why have these calamities come? 15:27 Why are the fish and the birds falling from the sky? 15:30 It's because people have forgotten the knowledge 15:32 that God wants to give us found in His law. 15:35 You know, that's a fulfillment of the new covenant promise 15:38 that He shall write His law upon our hearts 15:39 and upon our minds that we shall be unto Him, 15:42 the people and He shall be to us a God. 15:44 It's not something that government can legislate. 15:46 I know there's people that have this idea that they think 15:48 that if we can just legislate God's law 15:51 that we can get people to conform 15:53 to the standard of righteousness, 15:55 but that really can't happen. 15:57 It comes from revival and reformation, 15:59 recognizing our need of having Christ as a personal Savior 16:03 and having Him personally by His spirit dwelling in our hearts 16:07 writing His heart, His law upon our hearts 16:09 and upon our minds and all these signs that we see today, 16:13 these are the signs of the times. 16:21 Laymen Ministries has been working in India since 1994 16:24 with national evangelism in connection 16:26 with Pastor Shadrach Samuel. 16:28 A few years ago I met Pastor Johnson 16:30 at a friend's house in Chennai, India. 16:33 While we were there, some church members 16:34 approached our ministry about starting 16:36 a television program in India. 16:38 Here's what Pastor Johnson remembers 16:39 about that "Historic Day." 16:42 It was a historical day for India, 16:45 pioneering of television program in India 16:49 through Laymen Ministry. 16:50 The program later became known as "Saving Hands." 16:53 In a short time this program's popularity took off 16:55 and now it's become a very key part 16:58 to Laymen Ministries Evangelistic efforts in India. 17:00 You see this is how it works. 17:02 Seeds are sown through television. 17:04 Our Bible workers do outreach by going door to door 17:07 and following up on contacts that come 17:09 from the television program 17:10 through the prayer hotline that we have. 17:12 And these contacts lead to Bible studies 17:15 and then finally evangelistic meetings. 17:17 People are baptized and then new churches are built. 17:21 It's not only a television, 17:24 but it is completely the package of evangelism. 17:29 Our programs are now in three different languages 17:32 on six different networks 17:33 seen from the Middle East to Australia. 17:36 One of the networks is called "Jaya Television." 17:37 It's a mainstream Hindu television network. 17:40 It has a viewing audience of 95 million people. 17:43 Our broadcast was seen over satellite television, 17:46 cable and even over the internet. 17:49 We would like to take you to India right now 17:50 to share with you our most current developments. 17:55 This is the property that Laymen Ministries just purchased, 17:57 it's just east of the city of Chennai. 17:58 It's in a nice rural area here. 18:01 We actually have this property completely paid for 18:03 and we had a dedication service last December 25 18:05 for this piece of property. 18:07 Now we're working with engineers 18:08 to actually get the building up and going. 18:11 And we have engineer who is visiting with us. 18:13 We chose this area but yet it's still a rural environment. 18:16 So it's quiet here. 18:17 There's a lot of farm land, you know, 18:18 animals and pasture land here. 18:20 So it's a nice place to have a training center 18:23 and have a place to, have a call center 18:25 for our TV ministry 18:26 and also to have a television studio 18:28 to produce our own television programs. 18:30 We've been working here for quite a number of years, 18:32 already we're well established on the networks here in India, 18:35 producing national language televisions programs. 18:38 And so having this facility here will give us the opportunity 18:41 to be able to produce our own programs 18:43 and then give them directly to the networks 18:44 without having to hire commercial places 18:47 to produce our programs. 18:49 Pastor Johnson also explains to us 18:50 some of the reasons why Laymen Ministry 18:52 purchased this property in this area. 18:55 And the reason why we have chosen is, number one, 19:00 it's an opportunity for evangelism. 19:03 Because in that area where we purchased the property, 19:07 there were 4,500 villages un-entered territory. 19:14 The second one is cost, 19:17 because in the city it is very expensive. 19:21 It's huge, that is we cannot. 19:24 So I think in my understanding 19:28 it is an opportunity for evangelism. 19:30 So we're moving and also the cost. 19:34 You see, owning our own production studio 19:36 will clear up some of the problems 19:38 we've been having in hiring commercial studios. 19:40 When we record our programs, things like now, 19:44 this is kind of sensitive but these are real issues 19:46 when it comes to producing television programs 19:48 for broadcast around the world on national television. 19:52 The studios would often cancel our shoot. 19:54 The pastors were in-depth coming to the studio to do the shoot, 19:57 just to be told we're sorry, you were cancelled today 20:00 or they would come and they would say, 20:02 oh, the schedule tapings have changed, 20:04 you are supposed to come on Wednesday 20:05 or sometimes they would over bill us on our taping cost 20:09 and then sometimes they were little bit 20:12 less than honest in the amount of studio hours that we used. 20:15 We currently have funding 20:16 for the new studio equipment for the building. 20:18 And we have some funds for starting 20:19 the actual building project itself. 20:22 But we're still around $60 to $70,000 short 20:24 for this particular building project. 20:26 Please pray with us about this special need 20:29 and this work in India. 20:32 Right now I would like to take you out 20:33 to the South Pacific To Vanuatu. 20:35 Mike and Becky Needles and family 20:37 arrived this last February to help 20:38 with our outreach program doing education 20:41 and medical missionary work. 20:42 We have also an aviation medical project going on there 20:45 with Dr. Turnbull and his wife Naomi, 20:47 who oversee this project. 20:49 Now Mike is a building contractor 20:51 and he will be focusing his work, 20:52 coordinating building projects with connection 20:55 with Laymen Ministries growth that's taking place 20:57 there in the Islands in Northern Vanuatu. 20:59 As well as helping to start a trade school 21:01 where he will teach practical building skills 21:03 to teach the students in our schools. 21:06 Mamburao, Philippines, graduation just took place 21:10 this last March from our forward credit elementary schools. 21:13 This last year we had 233 students 21:15 registered in our schools. 21:17 So we're building a new present truth academy 21:20 which will be a working academy 21:22 connected together with agriculture work. 21:25 We have 75 acres of land already paid for. 21:28 It's already got a nice road going into it. 21:30 It's all drained and ditched and we have a building site 21:33 that's been cleared out and we've just shipped 21:35 over four containers with equipments, 21:37 solar panels and all kinds of things 21:39 to help get the school started. 21:40 We recently put up a wind tower and solar panels. 21:44 This school will be off the grid 21:45 and will be generating also an electricity for the schools, 21:49 for the computers, for lighting, everything there. 21:51 Recently just in the last couple of weeks 21:53 a team came over from Switzerland 21:55 and started helping to do 21:57 the construction on these buildings. 21:58 They were digging the foundations 22:00 to lay the new buildings 22:03 and to help cut out some areas 22:04 that will be used for extensive gardening. 22:07 Right now in the Philippines we have an urgent need 22:09 for student missionaries for this next school year. 22:12 So if you know anybody that's interested 22:13 in getting involved with missions, 22:15 right now is the time to contact our ministry on our website. 22:19 Download a mission application and get involved 22:22 with helping the school in the Philippines. 22:31 Now it's time for our special feature. 22:33 This is the time where we share with you a human interest story. 22:36 Just recently Abegail Fearson returned from the Philippines 22:39 where she served as a missionary for Laymen Ministries. 22:42 In a recent interview she shared one of her experiences. 22:47 If the boat doesn't come, there's no food. 22:56 I spend a year in the Philippines, 22:58 in the middle of the jungle as a volunteer missionary. 23:03 There are only two sources of food there in the village 23:06 because it's so far away from everything. 23:09 One, the boat will carry everything 23:11 that we order via text. 23:13 Or two, the people in the village will give us 23:18 or sell to us what they have. 23:22 We were really dependent on the boat. 23:25 A typhoon had been in the area, one that had struck Australia 23:32 and because of this typhoon the waves 23:36 over near our village are really rough, really rough 23:41 and the boat wasn't able to come and bring food to us. 23:45 The first week went by, we're okay, we had enough food. 23:49 Second week went by, hey, we're still making it. 23:52 This is what we expected two weeks. 23:55 Now the third week wasn't so much fun. 23:58 The third week we had run out of everything, even rice. 24:05 And it was my week to cook. 24:08 I had to take care of four individuals including myself. 24:12 And I had no idea how I was gonna do it 24:15 because we literally had nothing. 24:22 I did the only thing I knew I could do. 24:24 I went down on my knees and I prayed. 24:26 I said Lord, I have no idea 24:30 how I'm gonna make it through this week 24:34 and I pray that you will provide for me 24:38 like You promised in Luke 12. 24:44 As soon as I got off my knees after pleading with the Lord, 24:51 I heard a voice at my front door. 24:53 Mom, mom Abby and I saw little girl, 24:56 she doesn't speak much English 24:58 but my students translated for me. 25:00 I have cassava to sell to you and I can tell you this, 25:05 there was not one day for that entire week 25:10 that any of us were not stuffed. 25:13 When I say the floodgates of heaven were open, 25:17 I don't mean we just ate. 25:18 Okay, I think I can do with this to survive and live comfortably. 25:22 No, we were almost stuffed each day. 25:27 My name is Abegail and my prayer was answered. 25:32 Abegail story is one of many who have gone overseas 25:34 to serve as a missionary with Laymen Ministries. 25:37 If you or anyone you know is

where we share a new story 26:07 with you and ask for your comments. 26:10 Then in our next program we'll be reading 26:12 some of your comments on the air. 26:14 Now I don't know if you've heard about 26:16 what's going on in around the world 26:18 that this is kind of unusual, 26:20 people are hearing weird sounds 26:22 in very many different places around the world. 26:24 When I first started hearing about this I thought, 26:26 this is just a hoax, is it fakes. 26:28 Is this something like only the tabloids 26:30 will be reporting on. 26:31 I went to YouTube 26:32 and I listened to some of these sounds 26:33 and some of them were kind of scary, a little bit eerie. 26:36 And then I started looking around 26:38 and I noticed that there was enough people calling in 26:40 from hearing these sounds in various areas 26:42 that they were contacting their local newscasters 26:45 and they were actually being reported on the news. 26:48 What I like to do is share with you 26:50 a couple of news clips 26:51 and some actual footage of these strange 26:53 and mysterious sounds and see what you think. 27:03 This county have also received numerous calls 27:05 about a large boom and the ground shaking 27:08 just like some folks were describing out here. 27:13 Some strange noises heard around the world 27:14 in the last few weeks has people buzzing. 27:17 It sounds like a noise straight out a science fiction flick. 27:20 People around the world 27:22 and here at home have reported hearing some bizarre noises. 27:25 That right Baltic sound if we've ever heard one. 27:29 And what could that possibly be? 27:31 Somebody shut the door. 27:32 It sounds supernatural. 27:34 So what do you think these strange sounds might be? 27:37 We would like to hear from you. 27:39 You can
